Chapter 1 Busted and Beaten–Live

After I got pregnant, my husband’s “wife” showed up
at my
door.

She brought along streamers from the Karma Crew and barged into my home like a mob. They trashed the place and laughed at me, calling me the queen of knock–offs.
“She’s a materialistic homewrecker! I’ve seen her chats with my husband–she’s obsessed with fake designer bags!”
“No wonder she sold herself for money. What a disgrace to all women!”
“Don’t think the law can’t touch you. We, the Karma Crew, specialize in cleaning up sc*m like you!”
Just to boost their viewer count, they even tried to slash my face. And because of that, I lost my baby.
I never expected that pretending to be poor would end up giving that cheating couple the upper hand. But as a top–tier heiress, I wasn’t going to stay quiet anymore.
“I want Benjamin Steele out with nothing to his name. And someone kick that mistress‘ father out of the company! Also, all the ‘counterfeit‘ items they broke in my home totaled 870 million–I want full compensation from every one of them! And if they can’t pay up, let them rot in jail!”
“Dad, I’m pregnant.”
Ding!
A message alert popped up–100 million had just been transferred into my account.
“If you want to play poor and suffer, that’s your choice. But don’t make my grandchild suffer with you. The private doctor’s already on his way.”
“Dad, that was then. Now Benjamin’s worth a few million on his own.”
“You call that assets? That’s not even enough to buy you a vase.”
The corner of my mouth twitched. I glanced around at the antiques and luxury goods crowding the room and wisely kept my
mouth shut.
My husband still hadn’t responded to my messages. Bored, I opened TikTok and tapped into a trending livestream.
“Hey everyone, we are the Karma Crew–devoted to protecting the weak and fighting back against the corrupt! Today’s case is brought to us by a heartbroken woman whose husband cheated on her.”
The camera panned to a thin, worn–out woman.
I squinted. Isn’t that Jade Simmons, the collaborator on my husband’s latest project?!
“I’m begging the Karma Crew to help me punish the mistress! She’s pregnant now, and once the baby’s born, it’ll have full inheritance rights. She’ll be able to take a piece of my husband’s estate without lifting a finger!”
I raised my phone and threw ten Mega Carnival gifts into the stream as a show of support.
As an heiress, I despised money–related drama more than anything. That was precisely why I’d kept a low profile all this time.
The livestream chat exploded.
“Mistresses are the worst! Hiding behind legal loopholes to tear apart families every day.”
“Every mistress deserves to rot! Karma Crew, hurry up and take her down–I’ll throw more gifts your way!”

Viewers flooded in. Likes and donations rained down nonstop. Fired up by the attention, the Karma Crew streamers carried a massive banner through the streets. It read in big, bold letters: Punish the Mistress!
“Everyone hold tight–we’re actually just around the corner from the mistress‘ building. We’re going live right at the scene!”
The camera turned toward the front gate of Preston Court.
My heart skipped a beat. Wait–isn’t this my neighborhood?!
“Holy sh*t! A mistress living in such a high–end complex?! I heard there’s a waiting list just to get in!”
“Of course she does. That’s what mistresses want, isn’t it? Money. Who knows how many sugar daddies she’s got backing her?”
They weren’t wrong. Everyone living in this complex was either rich or connected. Back when my husband bought the place, it was only because I quietly covered most of the cost.
I closed the livestream and was about to call my husband to ask about Jade, see if I could help somehow, when the doorbell
rang.
Must be the doctor my father sent.
I hung up and opened the door–only to be shoved to the ground by a sudden force. Instinctively, I protected my stomach.
Before I could even get up, several phones were already aimed at my face.
“Everyone, look! This is the mistress we came to punish!”
“She’s living large, huh? This whole luxury apartment to herself. No wonder she’s seducing someone else’s man and trying to have his kid to grab a slice of the inheritance!”
Cruel voices filled the room.
I looked up in shock. It was the same Karma Crew from the livestream, and they’d actually stormed into my home!
Confused, I said, “You must have the wrong place. I-”
Before I could finish, Jade shoved her way forward and slapped me to the floor with everything she had.
“You filthy bitch! How dare you still play innocent when you’re living the good life off my man’s money?! Who the hell do you think you are to deserve all of it?!”
